SocialFi Monetization

Definition

SocialFi Monetization describes the methods by which users can earn financial value from their social interactions and content on decentralized social media platforms. This concept combines social networking with decentralized finance (DeFi) principles, allowing users to own their data, receive direct compensation for content creation, or earn tokens through engagement. It moves away from traditional ad-revenue models by enabling direct peer-to-peer value exchange and community-driven economic incentives. Examples include earning platform tokens for posts, receiving tips in cryptocurrency, or owning social graph data as an asset.
